In my opinion, MCAD is the perfect art school. It's small(ish) but concentrated on the arts; so if you know you would like a career in the arts, this school is the living end. Even if you don't know which specific field you want to be in, MCAD is good for developing talent and learning which type of art you would be most successful in.
Also, many of my friends are not from the Midwest - people from all over the country come to MCAD. I know people from Texas, Oregon, California, all over the country. MCAD could stand for more diversity in race and ethnicity; but other than that, there are a lot of different personalities on campus.
As for the student body itself, it's really hard to pinpoint one type of student to define the whole body. People are so different from each other - not everyone is a serious artist, and a lot of fun people come to MCAD. There are comic geeks, sculptors, illustrators, filmmakers, lazy people (me), crazy people, pretty much any kind of person could find a place for themself here. read full review -
